In fact, discussions were discouraged during the March commitfest too. Perhaps this is a good idea -- discussions on new development should be deferred until the end of the commitfest, if one is in progress. We'll see what happens on the May commitfest, but my guess is that it will be a lot shorter than the March one. If it takes 1.5-2 weeks, it's not so bad, and it means people is eager to get the current patches done as quickly as possible so that discussions on items they are interested in can continue. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
